So far, my experience at Georgia Tech has been a good challenge and very time-consuming. The resources are excellent, and clubs are student-led and very hands-on. There are opportunities for everyone no matter ethnicity, identification, religion, sexuality, gender, etc. The only thing I would like to see change is how sexual assault allegations are handled. Georgia Tech students have reverted to using Instagram to try and bring perpetrators to light and spread the truth about certain fraternities and students who have not faced the consequences of their actions. Georgia tech is not publicly addressing what is going on; they tell people to "go through proper channels and use other resources." sometimes, their image is more important than their students. However, if you're looking to pursue a STEM degree and higher education, I recommend attending the Georgia Institue of Technology!
I love the challenging and abundant academic community here at Georgia Tech! I can't say enough good things about the student body and my peers, everyone is extremely collaborative, willing to help, and bright. I've met the most amazing students and faculty with a high ambition and drive to solve problems, all while maintaining a sense of down to earth-ness that I haven't felt anywhere else in this caliber. The student body as a whole is quite accepting, kind and egalitarian- you can definitely find your people here- which is one of the most important things in shaping your college experience.
The only factors that make this a 4-star review are the on-campus dining and housing facilities. They leave much to be desired. Nothing too unlivable, though.
Lots of options for fun both on and off campus, Atlanta is an amazing city with lots of heart to be explored throughout your 4 (maybe 5) years here.

Georgia Tech is an amazing place to be! I usually describe it as "candy land for nerds". As a biochemistry student, I fell in love with my field. I had multiple opportunities to do undergraduate research and even studied abroad. The academics are very rigorous; but if you apply yourself and take your studies seriously then it will be manageable. I received the utmost support and respect from my professors and I really appreciate their commitment to student success.
